This week in the natural history cupboard it’s our final episode, and what better way to celebrate all that has gone before than taking a look back at some of Gareth and Aaron‘s favourite episodes.

So for the final time, the cupboard is open, come on in!
Join us this week as Gareth and Aaron take a look at what it would take to feed Jurassic park.

Gareth has run the numbers and brought the receipts, so join us for most pedantic episode yet. The cupboard is open, come on in!
